tell 'em all I'm on vacation
say I went to visit friends
that you aint heard or seen from me in quite a while
when they ask you where I've been
tell 'em I'm out on the west coast
where it dont ever rain
and that I'm probably doin fine

jus dont tell 'em I've gone crazy
that I'm still strung out over you
tell em anything you want to
just dont tell em all the truth
yeah dont tell em all the truth

tell 'em all I'm out in vegas
blowin every dollar I ever made
tell 'em that I must be into somethin bad for me
cause I sure lost a lot of weight
tell 'em I'm out on the road
with some ol' rock and roll band
livin' like a gypsy can

just dont tell 'em I've gone crazy
that I'm still strung out over you
tell 'em anything you want to
just dont tell 'em all the truth
yeah dont tell 'em all the truth

the truth is that I'm askin you to lie
and we both know that it aint right
but if you ever loved me please
have some mercy on me
yeah yeah yeah yeah

tell 'em anything you want to
just dont tell 'em all the truth
yeah dont tell 'em all the truth
I still need you
yeah thats the truth
I still love you
baby thats the truth---Lyrics submitted by bri.
